Priyanka: Nick Jonas is my ultimate shopping buddy
Indian actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas says she’s not much of a shopper as she doesn’t have the patience but her American pop star husband Nick Jonas is the best person to hit the stores with.
Speaking to the Evening Standard newspaper, Priyanka said: “I’m not much of a shopper, I don’t have the patience to go to five different shops. I need it to be made easy for me which happens at Harrods because they have everything under one roof.
“My husband, Nick, he’s the best shopper, the most efficient – and he actually likes it.”
Priyanka tied the knot with Nick back in December 2018 after a whirlwind romance. They had traditional Hindu and Christian ceremonies at the Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur, India, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
Priyanka has not allowed her career to wane since tying the knot.
After her transatlantic transition from Bollywood to Hollywood, she’s gone on to star in a number of films including the ‘Baywatch’ reboot alongside Zac Efron and Dwayne Johnson, and is currently the lead in Amazon’s spy drama ‘Citadel’ alongside Stanley Tucci.
Priyanka will be returning to the big screens in the third instalment of the eagerly anticipated ‘The Matrix Resurrections’ that will be out in cinemas this week.
Her other off-screen projects included the release of her memoir back in February ‘Unfinished’ which made the ‘New York Times’ Bestselling list.
Priyanka also has her own production company, Purple Pebble Pictures, and her goal is to create as many opportunities for actors of colour as she can.
She said: “My company Purple Pebble Pictures has a first look deal with Amazon, we’re doing really incredible work. I have just forayed as a producer into Broadway with my company.
“I think I’m expanding myself as a producer and creating opportunities for people of colour, for Indians – but for myself too. To be able to give myself the opportunity for parts that may or may not be written for me.”
“Now, not every one of them may go to the Oscars like White Tiger, but the attempt is to be able to create content which has something to say, and yet to put culture and diversity at the forefront. It’s an exciting time.”

Shehnaaz Gill on exploring Bengali culture through ‘Singh Vs Kaur 2’: ‘I enjoyed it a lot’

Mumbai, Sep 3: Actress Shehnaaz Gill has opened up about her character Jasneet Kaur in “Singh Vs Kaur 2.”
Speaking exclusively to media, she shared what made portraying the Bengali-rooted character an interesting experience for her. Jasneet Kaur comes from a Bengali background, while the story of the film travels across Punjab, Kolkata, and Canada. Speaking about the character, Shehnaaz shared that the role gave her an opportunity to explore different cultures, languages, and personalities.
Gill stated, “It was a lot of fun, and it was a very interesting character. And I enjoyed living in that culture. And seriously, when you watch the film, the way we have presented Kolkata so beautifully, you will find it very interesting. When you watch the film on 11th September, you tell me how much you found my character interesting. I enjoyed it a lot.”
Shehnaaz has opened up about being part of the ‘Singh vs Kaur 2’ franchise and addressed the possibility of comparisons with the first film. The actress said she does not feel any pressure, as her character Jasmeet is different from the one portrayed in the original. The actress explained that while the first installment featured a different character named Jasmeet, the sequel introduces her in the role.
“I think, as far as comparisons are concerned, in Singh Vs Kaur, the first character was a girl named Jasmeet, who was someone else. Now, it’s me. So, I don’t have any pressure about this at all. And I don’t think there will be any point of comparison because, of course, some things have a lot of impact on the audience’s minds. But when people see me, trust me, they will fall in love with me too,” said Shehnaaz.
Directed by Navaniat Singh, ‘Singh Vs Kaur 2’ stars Gippy Grewal and Shehnaaz Gill in the lead roles. The film is slated for a worldwide release on September 11, 2026.

Priyanka Chopra recalls summer of 2017 when she gave Nick Jonas her number

Mumbai, September 3: Global icon Priyanka Chopra Jonas took a trip down memory lane as husband Nick Jonas and his brothers Joe and Kevin released their latest song “Listen When Sad”.
She shared a nostalgic compilation of their relationship and recalled the summer when she gave Nick her number, in the summer of 2017.
Priyanka shared a video featuring a series of pictures capturing happy moments from her journey with Nick, including their early days together, travels and family memories. The actress captioned the post as,“Oh yes!
I do remember, the summer, I gave you, my number… circa: summer 2017 Sound on New Song Out Now | #ListenWhenSad @jonasbrothers.”
For the uninitiated, the post comes as the Jonas Brothers’ new single “Listen When Sad” was released on August 28.
The song nostalgically revolves around memories of young love, including the line about a summer when a girl gave someone her number.
Priyanka’s compilation also included a picture from a family holiday in Goa, featuring her cousin and actress Parineeti Chopra, brother Siddharth Chopra and other family members posing together.
Parineeti, who seemed thrilled, also took to the comments section to reminisce about the trip, writing, “Dayum that Goa trip was THE ONEEEE”.
Talking about the Priyanka and Nick’s love story, while the couple’s first face-to-face meeting took place at the Vanity Fair Oscars after-party in February 2017, Nick apparently had already made the first move months earlier.
On September 8, 2016, he had sent Priyanka a Twitter DM saying, “I’m hearing from a few mutual friends that we should meet.” Priyanka replied asking him to text her instead considering her team had access to her social media account, which is how Nick got her number.
The two later met for drinks in New York and were subsequently invited to attend the 2017 Met Gala together by Ralph Lauren.
Their relationship eventually turned serious in 2018. Nick proposed to Priyanka and the couple tied the knot in a lavish wedding ceremony in Jodhpur in December 2018.
The couple are parents to their daughter Malti Marie.

The love, the laughter, the arguments, the endless stories, the unspoken understanding… and the comfort of knowing that no matter where life takes us, we will always have each other.”
“We have grown up together, watched life change around us, celebrated some of its most beautiful moments, and stood beside each other through the difficult ones too. And somewhere through all those years, this bond has remained one of the few constants I can always come back to.
“Happy Raksha Bandhan, Bhaiya. Here’s to all the memories we have made, all the years we have walked through together, Always grateful to have you as my brother,” she went on to add.
